Packed her bags, hit the road

She's headed out of town

And it's late, lights are out

And there's not a soul around

Well she knows in her heart

It's time to make a new start

So she's finally seized the day
C G
This is the great escape

Now she thinks to herself

Don't you look in that rear view mirror

Don't give up on your dreams

And she's overcome with tears

Nobody knows what she's feeling inside
Em C D
Or the heartache she faced every day
C G
Before the great escape

Now you can think what you want

She's not running away
Em C D
She's really just running somewhere

To a place she called home

Such a long time ago
Em C D
And somebody who loves her there
C D
There's no time to waste
C G
This is the great escape
